cargo protection

When a product sits, it is at risk. Paper Transport has actively been working to lessen cargo theft. On the safety side, we need to make sure we are getting products from Point A to Point B as quickly as possible.In addition, we work hard to reduce the number of relays at drop yards. Especially in certain metropolitan areas where we know there is an element of crime. These are a few of the many steps we have taken to minimize cargo theft.
